Welcome to the School Counseling Corner!
Hello! At Forest Hills Elementary, I am passionate about helping students navigate their academic, social, and emotional journeys. Our comprehensive program aims to create a safe, supportive space where every student feels heard, valued, and empowered to succeed.
I believe in the power of connection and strive to foster positive relationships with students, families, and staff. My approach is rooted in empathy, active listening, and personalized support. Whether it's addressing academic concerns, social skills, emotional regulation, or career exploration, I work closely with students to help them develop the tools they need to thrive.
One of our key SEL focuses is teaching self-regulation and emotional management strategies. Our program incorporates frameworks like the Zones of Regulation and other evidence-based practices to help students recognize and manage their emotions in healthy ways.
Feel free to reach out—I am here to support and guide you!
